Can we create a defect against a work item ?

We are RTC 1.01. In this version can we create a defect against a work item (lets say Type Task) ?

Hi,

You could create a defect and then link it to the task with a block relationship. Alternatively, you could use the impediment work item.

We have an impediment in our project which should really be a task.

Is it possible to just change the same work item from being an Impediment to a Task?

Hope this isn't a stupid question but I can't find where one can just change the "type" of a work item on the fly.

We are using RTC 2.0.0.2

What you're running into is the fact that the default display of an
Impediment does not include its type.

But changing the type of a work item that does not display its type is
easy, once you know how (:-).
Just create a query that matches that work item, and make sure that the
"type" of the work item is one of the result columns.
Right click over the type column of that work item, and you'll get a
"change type" operation.

Cheers,
Geoff
